Hello, I'm Rukhsana
Here to help you release what's been holding you back.
Leaving you free to live life to your full potential.
Therapy and Coaching for Anxiety, Confidence, Low Self-Worth & Imposter Syndrome
Do you feel stuck in patterns of thinking and behaviour that no longer serve you?
Have you spent years putting others first, doubting yourself, or holding back—even though you know you’re meant for more?
Maybe you sense there’s more to life, but you’re not sure how to access it. You might be feeling anxious about speaking up, lost in your career, or unsure of your worth—and wondering if meaningful change is even possible.
You’re not alone.
I’m Rukhsana, a Cognitive Hypnotherapist and Confidence Coach, offering online and in-person sessions in North Hertfordshire and London. I support people who feel held back by anxiety, low self-worth, imposter syndrome, or fear of visibility to reconnect with their authentic selves and move forward with confidence, clarity, and purpose.
Whether you’re struggling with low confidence, anxiety, or just feeling stuck—our work together can help you break free from old patterns and unlock the life you truly want.
Common Struggles I Can Help With
- Constantly putting others’ needs before your own
- Anxiety, overthinking, or fear of speaking up
- Low self-worth, imposter syndrome, or perfectionism
- Struggles with boundaries or fear of saying no
- Feeling stuck, lost, or disconnected from your direction and potential
- Burnout, stress, or people-pleasing
- Struggles with identity or feeling like you don’t belong
- Fear of change, visibility, or taking up space
I also work with phobias, social anxiety, confidence around interviews and speaking, and a range of career and personal wellbeing concerns. If you’re unsure whether I can help, feel free to get in touch.
Tailored Therapy and Coaching That Meets You Where You Are
I work with Cognitive Hypnotherapy and Coaching to help uncover and shift the subconscious patterns that keep you stuck. We’ll work together to gently uncover the root causes of what’s holding you back, release limiting beliefs, and build confidence from the inside out.
This isn’t about pushing through or forcing change. It’s about creating the right conditions for insight, healing, and long-term transformation.
I work with people from all walks of life and especially support those who’ve felt unseen, unheard or out of place in traditional spaces. My practice is a space where every part of you is welcome.

What I Do
Change may be easier than you might think
The powerfully effective practices of Cognitive Hypnotherapy and Coaching may help you release limiting beliefs and overcome patterns of thinking and behaviour that might be holding you back.
Cognitive Hypnotherapy
Quest Cognitive Hypnotherapy is a modern, evidence-based approach that uses a variety of techniques from different disciplines, including Positive Psychology, Evolutionary Psychology, and Neuro-linguistic Programming (NLP).
It focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and beliefs held within the subconscious mind, which often contribute to emotional and behavioural challenges.
I tailor my approach to each client’s specific needs, using a bespoke programme of tools and techniques responding to your unique experiences.
Coaching
Coaching is a transformative experience, a journey of self-discovery that helps you gain clarity on what you truly want and understand what’s preventing you from achieving it.
I’ll guide you through a process of reflection and exploration, helping you uncover your unique gifts and challenge limiting beliefs.
From this foundation of self-awareness, we’ll develop a concrete plan of action. Through powerful questioning and collaborative exploration, we’ll work together to overcome obstacles, unlock your potential, and create lasting positive change in your career and life.
This is about achieving the results you desire and stepping into your authentic power to live a more fulfilling and purposeful life.

With over 19 years of experience in the cultural sector and a particular specialisation in supporting those from diverse and under-represented backgrounds, my mission is to help you overcome challenges, build confidence, and unlock your full potential in both your personal and professional life.
Testimonials
“Rukhsana helped me let go of the problem that I was carrying in my head for 15+ years. She is a very thoughtful, kind, and supportive therapist and coach.

“I had a series of Cognitive Hypnotherapy sessions with Rukhsana to help improve my self confidence around speaking and communicating, and I am so pleased with the results!
Rukhsana is a very thoughtful and considerate therapist, and I felt comfortable working with her. The fortnightly sessions were very constructive and I received hypnosis tracks to work with alongside the sessions.
I was so pleased to see improvements so quickly, which were also recognised by those close to me. I would highly recommend anyone considering Cognitive Hypnotherapy to work with Rukhsana.”

It’s been an absolutely amazing growth experience.
Thank you!”

Let's Talk!
I offer a completely free 30 minute initial call – we can discuss what you’d like to change, the life you want to be living and how I may help you to get there.
This call can be a powerful way of gaining new insights to activate change.
There is absolutely no obligation to work together after the call. So you’ve got nothing to lose, and potentially everything to gain.
